Free random video chat
with strangers worldwide.
Start a one-on-one conversation over text, voice, or HD video in seconds — no account, no downloads, and streams stay peer-to-peer between you and the other person.
Everything you need to connect
Choose how you want to talk — lightweight text, a quick voice call, a game, or full HD video. It's all in one place, with privacy built in.
HD video calls
Browser-to-browser WebRTC video with low latency and adaptive quality that holds up on weaker connections. Nothing to install.
Voice calls
Peer-to-peer audio with echo and noise suppression. Talk first and turn on video only when you want to.
Text & media chat
A full chat panel alongside the call — messages, media, voice notes, and reactions in real time.
In-chat games
Built-in mini-games to break the ice without leaving the conversation or opening another app.
Gender & country filters
Match openly worldwide, or narrow things down by gender and by country from a list of 150+ regions.
Anonymous by default
No account, email, or phone number. You start chatting as a guest and leave nothing behind.
Peer-to-peer streams
Audio and video travel directly between browsers over encrypted WebRTC — not routed through or stored on our servers.
Moderation & reporting
Automated safety checks plus a one-tap report button so you can flag and block anyone immediately.
One-tap skip & block
Not feeling a conversation? Skip to the next person or end the call instantly. You stay in control.
Built to keep your calls private
The platform is designed around a simple idea: collect as little as possible, and keep your streams off our servers.
Encrypted peer-to-peer calls
Media streams connect directly from one browser to another using WebRTC's built-in encryption, so your calls aren't recorded or stored server-side.
No personal data required
We don't ask for your name, email, phone number, or social profiles. You're anonymous from the moment you arrive.
Moderation & one-tap reporting
Automated safeguards run alongside a report button that lets you disconnect and flag a match the instant something feels off.
18+ and clear conduct rules
The platform is for adults, with a zero-tolerance policy for non-consensual or malicious behavior and straightforward community guidelines.
Peer-to-peer, by design
Instead of routing video through a central server, calls connect your browser directly to the other person's using the WebRTC standard's encryption.

No registration form, no verification email, no waiting room.

Questions, answered
Is RandomChats free to use?
Yes. One-on-one matching over text, voice, video, and in-chat games is free. Optional VIP passes add conveniences like locked gender/country filters and priority queueing, but the core experience costs nothing.
Do I need to sign up or give an email?
No. You can start chatting right away without creating an account, giving an email, or linking any social profile. Your session is anonymous.
Are video calls or messages recorded?
No. Audio and video connect directly between browsers using WebRTC's encryption. We don't record, store, or log your call streams or messages on our servers.
How does RandomChats handle safety?
Automated safety checks run in the background, and you can tap Skip or Report at any time to immediately disconnect and block a match. We enforce a zero-tolerance policy for abuse.
What makes it a good Omegle alternative?
It keeps the instant, no-sign-up spirit of Omegle while adding peer-to-peer encrypted calls, a dedicated voice mode, gender and country filters, in-chat games, and one-tap reporting.
Which devices and browsers are supported?
Any modern WebRTC-capable browser — Chrome, Safari, Firefox, Edge, or Brave — on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, and Android. No app or extension needed.
How do the country and gender filters work?
Before matching you can set a gender preference and pick from 150+ countries. The matchmaker then prioritizes active people who fit your criteria while keeping pairing fast.
Can I chat without turning on my camera?
Yes. You control your media. Stick to text, use voice only, or switch on HD video whenever you feel comfortable — and turn it back off anytime.
